#fashion and #beauty are among the most popular hashtags on Instagram
Collaboration with models, bloggers and influencers allows DIVO to unlock huge opportunities to engage a multi-million audience.
According to McKinley the State of Fashion 2019 Report, the industry executives identified technology-related issues as top consumer shifts.

The business model of DIVO Platform is predicated on the current state of the fashion and beauty market, which is characterized by a huge investment potential on the one hand and high inertia due to technological lag on the other.
Evaluation by the international financial consultancy Baker&Tilly points to a favorable financial outlook for a platform that implements disruptive technological solutions, capable of digitizing the industry’s business processes and raising them to a level in compliance with international standards.
Problems with sexual harassment have existed in the fashion industry for a very long time, but only recently it became possible to talk about this issue which means it can be resolved.
This idea has inspired us to create the environment which will combine the best practices and technologies in the fight against inappropriate behavior, harassment and sexism.
DIVO establishes a new level of relationship between the industry participants, launching transparent blueprints for interaction, unites the supporters in fight against discrimination, creates a community that protects New Faces of the modeling industry from making mistakes that may damage their reputation.
Today the fight against any presence of discrimination is an ever-present responsibility of every business.
"For years, other models and I have spoken out about systemic sexual harassment and abuse on the job – and yet, powerful individuals have tried to silence us and tacitly given approval that this behavior is okay. Sexual harassment is not okay and should not be tolerated by models, nor should it be tolerated by our industry".
"I don’t know anyone, man or woman, in our industry who hasn’t experienced sexual harassment at some point in their career. We might work as independent contractors, but we still need legal protections. This is a tipping point in our society across so many industries, and it is time to truly address the elephant in the room".
"Models, especially the younger ones, are particularly vulnerable to sexual predators and abuse of power within the fashion industry. Models, like actresses, are often shamed into silence or expected not to complain when conditions at work make them uncomfortable".
DIVO's declaration is to promote the principles of equal opportunity, ethics, justice, respect for privacy, honor and dignity of an individual, and to implement these values to the DIVO Platform.
